Answer:On December 7th, 1941, Pearl Harbor was attacked by Japanese forces.

The next day, Franklin D. Roosevelt addressed the United States Congress with his memorable “a date which will live in infamy” speech.

Step-by-step explanation:

This speech had two purposes:

To urge Congress to formally declare war on Japan (which they did just minutes later), and

To rally the American people to support the war effort.
